8) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

On June 30, 2012, the Company completed the wind-down of Bacchus Distribution.  Bacchus Distribution was the Company’s Oregon distribution division, selling both Company produced wines and wines and merchandise purchased from other sources.  The decision to wind-down these distribution activities was made due to the increasingly higher regulatory and overhead costs of maintaining Bacchus as an operating unit.  Distribution of Company produced wines in Oregon are now performed by an independent distribution company. All sales of purchased wines (as opposed to Company produced wines), and sale of merchandise to retailers, are considered discontinued operations.

 

Net sales from discontinued operation by Bacchus for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were $0 and $482,107, respectively.
